Holy Ghost School: July 2020

Praise ye the LORD. Praise ye The LORD from the heavens: praise Him in the heights.

Praise ye Him, all His angels: praise ye Him, all His hosts.

Praise ye Him, sun and moon: praise Him, all ye stars of light.

Praise Him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that be above the heavens.

Let them praise the Name of The LORD: for He commanded, and they were created.

Psa. 148:1-5 KJV

Fire, and hail; snow, and vapour; stormy wind fulfilling His Word:

Mountains, and all hills; fruitful trees, and all cedars:

Beasts, and all cattle; creeping things, and flying fowl:

Psa. 148:8-10 KJV

Kings of the earth, and all people; princes, and all judges of the earth:

Both young men, and maidens; old men, and children:

Let them praise the Name of The LORD: for His Name alone is excellent; His glory is above the earth and heaven.

Psa. 148:11-13 KJV

The Powers of The Age to Come

Part One

Christ gave the power for healing and miracles to the Church, but at present the Church is not fully working in “the anointing”.

In the days of the apostles and prophets in the New Testament, they operated in greater anointing than the Church does today. For instance: the Church today is not ready to confront a world-wide problem such as COVID-19.

Why is this so?

Because “the Body of Christ” today, is yet to reach the maturity of Unity in CHRIST JESUS.

Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!

It is like the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down upon the beard, even Aaron's beard: that went down to the skirts of his garments (Psa. 133:1-2 KJV).

GOD’s anointing flows from “the head”—which is CHRIST JESUS and flows down to “the body”—the Church.

Therefore, if “the body” is not truly united, then, the Church cannot fully function in ‘the anointing’.

“The Early Church” ‘had all things in common’—“they were of one heart and one soul”.

And the multitude of them that believed were of one heart and of one soul: neither said any of them that ought of the things which he possessed was his own; but they had all things common (Acts 4:32 KJV).

Now, see this: the result of their unity and voluntary service to GOD’s work resulted in what we read in the following verses:

And with great power gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of The Lord Jesus: and great grace was upon them all.

Neither was there any among them that lacked: for as many as were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the prices of the things that were sold,

And laid them down at the apostles' feet: and distribution was made unto every man according as he had need.

And Joses, who by the apostles was surnamed Barnabas, (which is, being interpreted, The son of consolation,) a Levite, and of the country of Cyprus,

Having land, sold it, and brought the money, and laid it at the apostles' feet (Acts 4:33-37 KJV)

With “great power” the apostles gave witness to the Resurrection of The Lord Jesus.

And “great grace” was upon them all.

“The Church” must attain Unity in CHRIST, and must be truly United with Him as His mystical body.

When this happens, then ‘the Church’ can receive “the powers of the age to come”.

When ‘the Church’ receives “the powers of the age to come”, then, ‘the Church’ will radically fulfill “the Great Commission”.

Now, know this: great problems that beset the world today, such as COVID-19 and even other greater problems, challenges and persecutions inadvertently helps the Church to ‘wake-up’ and ‘stand-up’ for righteousness and for the truth.

“The Church” today has the mandate to witness for Jesus “to the end of the earth”.

“The Early Church” bore witness of Jesus in Jerusalem, in all Judea and Samaria.

But, we as believers are given the mandate to preach “the Gospel of the Kingdom” in all the world as a witness to all the nations.

And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come (Matt 24:14 KJV).

The Church will only fulfill this “Great Commission” when she receives “the powers of the age to come”.

But ye shall receive power, after that The Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto Me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth (Acts 1:8 KJV).

When “the Church” attains Unity in CHRIST JESUS, just as the apostles ‘were all with one accord’ at Pentecost, then, ‘the Church’ will receive “the powers of the age to come”—like the rush of a mighty wind, and holy fire mixed with blood and oil from The Holy Spirit.

Then, “the Church” will do “greater works”.

Hallelujah!
